A woman was recovering Saturday morning after she was struck by a Metro Gold Line train when she got too close to the tracks in Boyle Heights because she was trying to take a photograph, according to authorities.
It occurred at 1149 E. First St. and was reported at 10:10 p.m. Friday, according to Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Brian Humphrey.
The unidentified woman was taken to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
No one on the train was injured, Humphrey said.
The incident was being investigated by the sheriff's Transit Services Division.
